Best uk returns retailer - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Im looking to order my 3rd nexus 7 but want a good retailer with good returns policy.
My first 2 came from ebuyer and they were both c70 units with screen issues so i dont want too use ebuyer again as it seems they only have c70 in stock.
So where do i buy my next one ?

Hi,
I've bought mine from ebuyer on Thursday and its a C8. Tiny bit of screen lift, but its not an issue at the min. Might be a good idea to give them another go.
If you don't want to, Tesco could be a good idea. They refunded me when I was out of the 28 day warranty immediately and had no problems with them. My first one was a C7 with screen flicker.

Hi
Tescos are out of stock everywhere instore and ive heard the return process is not good if done online
Asda collect maybe a option
Paul
P.s galaxy tab 2 7.0 is looking more interesting every day

I had two from Tesco, both had defects, returned with no issue - other than it taking a few days to sort, but I did get £20 for free from them lol!
Then I got one from my local Asda store, that also had defects so I went in and they swapped it there and then with no hassle! Plus you get 28 days return with them!

Asda dont have them either only online and collect from store.
May try them later after i play with a tab 2 7.0 in pcworld.

That's strange, my local Asda has a very small electronics part but they had two in stock and I ended up having both haha (well only one to keep)
You should maybe try another Asda store? I personally didn't like the Galaxy Tab, I find it too cluttered with all the Touchwiz stuff and it didn't feel as smooth as the Nexus.

Ok my local asda has a couple c80 units in stock so im picking one up later.
Hope its ok as this will be my last try with asus/google tablets.

All Nexus 7 come with the Transformers movie?

I just ordered the Nexus 7 today and was just curious if the movie was only to pre-ordered tablets or if it came with every purchase.

Everyone received it.
I noticed on my YouTube account under purchases, that it labels it as a £5.00 purchase. LOL

So it won't show up in my account until I get the tablet will it because I'm not seeing it anywhere on my account.

No, it doesn't show up til you activate the tablet.
Took a couple of minutes to show up on mine, as soon as I did the OTA update to 4.1.1

Oh, ok thanks. So only thing I don't get is the $25 credit since I didn't pre-order correct?

No, everyone gets it. Doesn't matter where you purchase it, instore, from google, pre-order or not.
Sorry to revive this old topic but instead of making a new one this one actually fits my bill, I am about to buy a nexus 7 next week and I would like to know if I buy it this month do I still get the $25 google play credit and the movie and books?
Thanks

I didn't receive the movie nor the $25. This is probably because the machine isn't officially available yet in my country (Belgium).

That is my biggest fear since I live in Brazil, so I am thinking of asking my parents in the USA to buy the Nexus 7 activate it there for me and buy what I want then whenever it arrives in Brazil I would not have any region specific problems.
Well It's not like it's a stellar movie so I don't really care much
Is there any way to watch it on a computer? I assume its streaming, so it would likely know what device you're using.

Also, I don't think you get it if you buy a 2nd hand nexus, even in a country where it's available

If I remember after reading a recent androidcommunity story it depends on the region you live in. I believe North America is Transformers 3 and Europe and the like got ice age and a TV show of some sort.

Bought a nexus 7 and still on the fence

So I bought a nexus 7 from office depot. It is unopened because after reading all the threads on here Im a little worried about the problems it will have. Im wondering if anyone has had any experience returning the device through office depot? Im also on the fence after hearing all the problems with the device it sounds like a huge headache. Looking to get some other users inputs on the nexus 7 device and if anyone's dealt with returning theirs at office depot. Also If you think I should purchase it from another store.
I've had no issues with the two I purchased from Staples. I wouldn't buy a pencil at Office Depot, the stores/people here SUCK!
I bought mine at Futureshop (here in Canada) and I was pretty hesitant as well in opening it after seeing all these threads about the issues people were having with theirs. But to my relief it was a good model. No visible defects with it.
Staples has a 14 day return policy on electronics. Keep that in mind when buying in store.
This is what all these negative threads are doing. Just open and start using, it's a great device.

I bought it at ABT in Glenview, IL. I had a problem with mine and ABT did not have any issue to exchange it for me.
I have not shopped at office depot for a while but when I did, i never had any problem return/exchange.

Office Depot has the same policy but once it's open only store credit. What's Google plays return policy?

You can return for a full refund at Staples if there is a problem with the device, even though it's been opened.

more like i dont want to get burned again I had a Samsung droid charge worst smartphone I have ever used. I just want to make sure that all these complaints are not as widespread as they are made out to be.
You're not gonna see everyone praising it on forums, they are here to resolve issues and report problems. My 7 is flawless.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
You bought it already. Just open it and find out. It's completely worth it if it's got a good display. And if it's defective, you can get it exchanged.
And I'm saying this as a person that has gotten two defective Nexus 7s and am currently waiting on number 3 (from Google Play). At least with your retail store purchase, you can exchange it the same day (if they have stock) if it's defective.
I got mine from Staples a week ago tomorrow. An absolutely flawless unit as far as I can tell. It was the only Nexus they had in stock, but it has no issues.
If there are in fact problems with it, I am obviously less observant/picky than other owners. I am yet to notice anything wrong
I wish people would stop saying the same exact thing in each of these threads....
nexus 7 is a fast and great little device.
go buy it now if you get a bad one take it back until your happy
Nexus7 is awesome. I have no problems with it. I purchased mine at staples.

The first batch of Nexus 7s seem to be a little faulty, but that's expected with any brand new product. I just got mine from Staples on Sunday and it's perfect. They said their previous shipment was defective and had to send it back and mine was from the new batch that had just come in the previous day. If it's defective, return it and get another one. Easy enough.
Got mine from Office Depot a week ago and it is flawless. None of the problems people here are reporting.

Yup, go to their website (http://www.staples.com/Google-Nexus-7-8GB-Tablet/product_949286), and check which store has them. Then call the ones that have them just to double check that they actually do have them. And ask them to hold it for you.

Everyone is going to be significantly more expensive than the Play Store, Google is subsidizing the phone and retailers aren't.

I just ordered from Amazon with Saturday Shipping. After tax it was like $300. I don't mind spending $20 and having it 4 days earlier and save the need to go hunting.

Don't see why it wouldn't. Can't test online since they are "discontinued".
I just printed and read it and it says all tablets. No mention of not being allowed on the new n7. It does expire 07/28/13.
I will be trying it out this afternoon.

Just checked my local staples and it wasn't in yet. The guy I talked to said they just received a large shipment but he had no idea if they were on it. I am going to swing by Walmart and hut staples later today if wm doesn't have any.
